A boy's first step after registering as a Cub Scout, regardless of his age, is to pass the Bobcat requirements.
They are as follows:
- THE CUB SCOUT PROMISE - and its meaning.
On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
Scout Law

courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty,
brave, clean, and reverent.
THE LAW OF THE PACK - and its meaning.

The Cub Scout helps the pack go.
The pack helps the Cub Scout Grow.
The Cub Scout gives goodwill."

"WE 'll BE LOyal Scouts"
